"Grandpa you're smoking again?!" sighed Nesephise. She addressed the Elder as "grandpa" because he had partially raised her when she was an orphan herself, and she was very indebted for all the things he had done for her in her childhood, such as feeding her, teaching her how to talk and read, how to cook, how to hunt, gather, and more…
"Ohoho, but if it isn't the heroine of the day! How are you, Nesephise? Oh?! T-These powerful beings… D-Divine Gods!" said the old man, trying to kneel.
"Don't kneel, there's no point in that." Said Belphegor.
"A-Ah, very well… you're also the saviors of our people… we are forever indebted… What do you need from me? I will make sure to help you in the best of my abilities…" said the Elder.
The Elder seemed very welcoming, he was wise too, and also knew they were the Gods due to their auras, they were the people that had helped the village from the threat of these three other gods that brought the egg with them and wanted to enslave the people."I have come here with them to talk about something… quite delicate." Said Nesephise.
"You see… My husband was eaten by the Giant Frog… Ah, alongside a clumsy bird girl." Said Abyss, she referred to Chaos and Aruliel…. Aruliel was often called "bird girl" by her.
"S-Swallowed by the Guardian of the Swamps?! T-That's… certainly… very, very bad…" said the old man feeling suddenly attacked by anguish.
"They came here looking for a way to… free them. Is there any record of the frog vomiting its things?" asked Nesephise.
"I… I've only heard that something similar happened once." Said the Elder.
Everyone's hears suddenly began to beat faster at these words.
"Please, tell us." Said Abyss."Yes… It was when I was only a 9-year-old child, my grandfather told me about this story, several years ago, there was once a woman and her son… the mother always foraged for food with her soon near the guardian, even when people told her to not get closer, she always ended coming closer because near the guardian there are never predators… However, things ended badly as the guardian suddenly entered into a rage, the woman managed to survive the rampage, but her son was swallowed…"
"That's… quite the bad mother." Said Yuki.
"Shut up." Said Abyss. Her aura and eyes shone with darkness as Yuki felt a strong feeling of dread encompassing her entire being.
"Eep!" muttered Yuki, shutting up.
"Anyways… The mother felt terrible about her son being eaten, and never thought for a second of her son disappearing. Due to this, she ended looking for ways to make the frog vomit her son, she wandered across the sea of swamps, looking for someone… Until she found someone special. A woman known as a saint or a priestess… I don't exactly know. It was a woman imbued with the power of the spirits, blessed by the totem of frogs. She paid her all she had for her aid, as the saint of spirits used her powers to sing a song, which spoke a language that the frog could understand…"
As the elder spoke, everyone realized who could a woman like this be, looking at Nesephise, who grew nervous.
"The frog was able to understand her words, and only because she was blessed by the spirits and found on her purity like nothing else, it vomited the son out of its gullet, which was still alive, somehow… the son was said to have been the grandfather of my grandfather's grandfather… he had said that inside of the stomach, he meet strange frog-faced people, the survivors of the ancient civilization who lived inside the frog's stomach… but for some reason they didn't come out when the frog vomited what it had inside…" said the Elder.
"I see… So… Nesephise, you're… a woman like this! Your crest… and the spirit you have! You're a Priest like the woman in the story!" said Abyss.
"I-I am?!" asked Nesephise in shock.
"Ohoho… I never thought I would ever tell such a tale again, and indeed, Nesephise, you're one of one in a trillion Saphibians, a Saint! You're blessed by the Spirits and also by the totem of Frogs, the Frog Spirit that protects and obeys you is a manifestation of such powers. You have yet to unlock the power to speak with frogs yet, but you should be able to do it if you sing from the depths of your heart." Said the Elder.
"I have… such a power? I never knew! I could command many frogs… wait, perhaps even amphibians… Maybe I could even ask the giant frog to deal with the space pirates conquering our planet!" said Nesephise.
"Space pirates?" asked Abyss.
"Wait, those guys are also here?" asked Belphegor.
"Oho, I see. So those bastards were pirates? I didn't knew they had some that were so fancy at God-Realm… these are higher grade trash." Said Ifrit while cracking his knuckles.
"Yes! There are Space Pirates in this planet, years ago they came and had been enslaving our race, forcing us to work for them and bring them the rich soil that lies within the depths of the swamp oceans… If we can use the strength of the giant frog to crush them- Ah, sorry! I was… being too selfish… I must first help you guys… I won't rest until your husband is freed, Abyss." Said Nesephise.
"Thanks… I really appreciate it, Nesephise…" said Abyss, as she hugged her.
"Ah… Hehe… Don't worry." Said Nesephise.
"Well, if you can help us out recover our master, I am sure master will help you guys." Said Ifrit.
"Indeed, Master pays back the kindness of others by a thousand times." Said Lilith.
"He'll beat the crap out of everyone here and we'll free you guys!" said Boxxy.
"R-Really?!" asked Nesephise.
"Papa is the strongest! We pale in comparison to him…" said Erebus.
"Indeed! Master is a benevolent man filled with power and charisma…! He is a good leader, and someone that will help you without even thinking it twice." Said Belphegor.
